Young Australians and Extremism with Dr Kristy Campion
Description
In this introductory episode we do a deeper dive into the work that we do at ESU and the trends we see in our client base, usually in response to world events. We chat with Dr Kristy Campion from Charles Sturt University on emerging ideologies in Australia and how the focus today is on youth. Young people are increasingly vulnerable to engaging in violent extremism and our own referrals are getting younger and younger. We recently engaged Kristy to do some research on our young client base to see if they could draw any conclusions on the susceptibility nexus for young people’s engagement in violent extremism.
